Product(s): Cloudflare One

Overall Comment:"The security and developer experience are world-class. Cloudflare’s products have strengthened the security of our platform while accelerating our development speed. The simplicity of rolling out new security protections/features has let our team move forward quickly and focus our time on more specialized requirements rather than the basics. The platform is both easy to understand and powerful, allowing us to leverage it in new ways as our needs have evolved. We see Cloudflare as an integral part of our company’s product strategy. "

Our development and security teams can get to a strong baseline of security in a fraction of the time compared to competing platforms without needing to rely on external tooling. Cloudflare One allows us to easily setup recommended settings and follow best practices to keep us in compliance with the latest security guidance. The different areas of the Cloudflare one platform work well together, enabling us to quickly expand and use new functionality to solve new challenges. New releases bring useful features such as AI bot training protection. With just a few clicks, Cloudflare Access gives us a strong protection layer around sensitive and internal routes that require extra security. Beyond individual features, Cloudflare one gives us confidence in the long-term stability and scalability of our platform. The underlying security protections are world-class, and also help provide confidence to our customers.

What do you dislike most about the product or service?

We’d like to see increased granularity in permissions management across some areas of the platform - specifically, the ability to control development resources at the project and environment levels so that it is easier for us to enforce least-privilege policies. We’ve been able to setup our permissions to meet our needs, but adding this functionality more directly in Cloudflare would make it easier to manage. It would also be great if certain features like single sign-on were available as add-ons for lower plan tiers.
